is this a bad thing?

[The People]

We view it as a good thing. Because as long as you have that reason to live you are telling yourself that you are a valuable person. Whether the reason is your kids or my highly anxious cat, I know that I need to stay here for them.

There are few people on this earth who have absolutely no value (although some barely toe the line). People who decide to leave us just go through so much pain that they forget that others are out there who will be hurt if they leave. My kitty would never survive if I left. She is old and I already lost one. If someone took her to the Humane Society she would.. I couldn't do that to her. Sometimes it is that one little fur ball that keeps me going. Now I am being told that I must go to bed. Kitty's orders. ^..^
